Proper Grammar while faded?

[Spikedjester]

I seem to have the habit of when I am stoned if I am ordering food or talking to strangers I seem to be more polite. I have a smile on (obviously), I talk in a friendlier tone, and I even use perfect grammar. Things I would never say while sober or words I would never put together, because it just sounds weird (even though as far as the english language goes its perfectly acceptable). Anyone else get this or know what im talking about?

Anyone have any ideas as to why this occurs besides for mild paranoia?

Yes and no. Pot has helped me improve my creativity with writing and grammar-usage. However, I already had a pretty-exceptional understanding of syntax and linguistics. Pot typically doesn't make me very talkative. But see, I used to smoke roughly a half-ounce amongst friends a day. We smoked a lot of pot, we were all serious in the business. I was talking to some of my friends recently, and they all seem to have a similar problem: we don't see to talk at all, anymore. We just seem to now "Tune on, tune in and drop out."

I'm currently attempting to reverse that by being a more social and talkative person, but more or less, pot never made me talkative. Creative, but not talkative.

And I think this happens because when you are high you feel as though you are transparent and that other people can see inside you and your thoughts. I know its the paranoia, and that's not the explanation you want, but I think it is the primary culprit.

lol your probably right, because that makes sense.

Man, I never really realized why people are paranoid when they smoke before, but its cause they really do think people will be able to tell what they're thinking. Man. Thats deep.

I believe that paranoia from cannabis is a myth.
Some people worry that they might get caught. That's not paranoia.
Some people worry that the reefer madness scare stories might be true. That's not really paranoia either, they just don't know better yet.

some people freak out when they notice the change from being sober...they cant help that
...most people eventually get used to it and they become fine after few times of smoking

Hmm weirdly enough that works for me when i'm drunk, provided i'm not completely inebriated. I went to mates house and we were both pretty drunk. I managed to sit at his family dinner and eat a whole salmon meal with perfect table behaviour and over half an hour of friendly on-track conversation. Lol soon as we got out of the house it was a different story.

Not so lucky when i'm stoned lol.. I do fucked up things like zone out and stare at things.. I always ask people in shops to repeat things an shit like that.. lol also I push into queues without even realising. Not good.. I just think 'Pick up product - Take to desk - Give money to guy' without even considering other people.

:rasta:

I'm fine.

i find that when i am drunk/high, i am much more polite and pleasant. this happens most frequently when i'm drunk at a frat party/club to the security, i really try to be cool with these guys since they're kinda doing shitty work and because i'm underage anyway.
i mean, seriously, who's gonna bust a friendly drunk/stoner?

[connector_robot]

I always use perfect grammar, stoned or not.
